Summary
Zigazak! : A Magical Hanukkah Night
Jewish folklore comes to life in this magical Hanukkah story! On the first night of Hanukkah, two tricky devils arrive in the town of Brisk to cause mischief. They use a magic word " Zigazak!" to make dreidels dance and latkes fly. The good citizens of Brisk panic and appeal to their wise rabbi for help. He triumphs over the devils in a contest of wits, and soon sends them packing. But his real triumph is the ability to see the good in all things, even devils' tricks, helping the townsfolk enjoy their most magical Hanukkah ever. "The most imaginative Hannukah tale of the season." -- Publishers Weekly An Association of Jewish Libraries Notable Book for Young Readers
